No comparison between tea party, Occupy Wall Street protesters

Decades ago, fairy tales were the delight of children, but today, they appear to appeal to adults instead. Occupy Wall Street is another version of “The Emperor’s New Clothes.” National spokespeople claim it is just like the tea party movement, which held one-day rallies and then went home and to work, sharing their unified values with others.

When a large Washington rally was held, it was orderly and participants left the grounds clean. There were no large boxes of condoms so they could enjoy sex in the park. They did not get drunk; they did not get arrested; they were not sharing drugs.

One can compare any two groups and find something similar, but to believe that Occupy Wall Street is just like the tea party is ludicrous.
